Unobtanium is a trope, it's permission to check your care of science at the door. It's a plot device. It would be absurd to try to explain it's abilities with pseudo science, so he didn't even try.

Also, there is no such thing as an original script. I challenge you to give me a movie that was made this year that was 'original'.

How about Caroline? That movie was soooo weird it had to be something original. Bolt?

Caroline, spawned from darker (read: original) fairy tails that are hundreds of years old

Bolt? Fuck no. Ever heard of Don Quixote? Even that borrowed from Greek stuff too I'm sure.

Moon and Milk were probably my fav movies
